I hear this game may be played in Perth despite us having the right to a home final. I think there's some health regulation behind the ruling.

A bit unfair my fellow chaps, but I feel the Dees may take this in their stride all the same. Go number 9 (has he gotten smaller?)

    GWS without Greene for mine. They won't have enough goals in them to kick a winning score

    Geelong.

    I greatly fear the way the Giants moved the ball against us last time we played.

    Last time we won a prelim we beat the team who was ageing and on the way down, North. So history can repeat for mine, let's play the cats

    If greene is out , play gws in prelim. . He is there game winner . But they would need to get over geelong first . Like all teams that win there qualifying  final straight to prelim , you hope  that the team you play had a tough game the week before. Port at home should be very warm favourites who  ever they play  in their preliminary . Not thinking too far ahead . One week at a time .

    I expect GWS to win but I'd prefer to play Geelong. We'd run over the top of them because of our superior fitness

    Can’t believe I’m saying this Clint but it won’t matter.

    Neither of them will beat us, both looked real tired this weekend.

    I think I prefer to play the Giants. Their forward line isn’t as much of a worry, and they also play a contested game which I think we can beat them at. I know we lost to them earlier in the year, but I think we were struggling with our scoring and clearances which we’ve fixed up since then.

    With the Cats, I worry how easily they got a hold of us last time. Cameron and Hawkins can get off the chain and kill our premiership chances. Their over possessive ball movement can work really well for them at times. The reason we won last week was because they just couldn’t get their hands on the footy at all in that last qtr. The other factor is that, yes we’ve beaten them twice this year already, but beating a quality team like that three times in a year is difficult to do. If we do end up playing the Cats and win then we’ll be certainties to beat Port/Brisbane the week after I feel.

    Seems some are thinking Greene may be rubbed out for 2 weeks. Probably won't be rubbed out at all.

    GWS - have been away from home for months, enormous game against swans

    Geelong - old AF

     

    Whoever we do play should be rooted by the time we get to them. Give me the cats, because [censored] them!

    I wouldn’t think so.

    How can they sell tickets to a large section of people that are ineligible to attend.

    I paid for a GF guarantee, would be bad business to not be offered a ticket

    Think we'll be playing Geelong. Greene sent to tribunal, Green fractured forearm, Reid hammy, Cummings ankle.

    Hopefully it's hard fought and the Cats get banged up. And hopefully there is no bye between the semi and prelim.

    There won’t be a bye after the semis. That will give the teams that won the qualifying finals 2 weeks off. No way in hell the AFL will do that. 
    Only chance for a bye is prior to the grand final, and if Covid situation gets shaky they might just scrap it altogether.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
